Filzteich, Mining water reservoir in Schneeberg, Germany
The Filzteich reservoir spans across both Schneeberg and Hartmannsdorf bei Kirchberg, featuring a water slide, paddle boats, and swimming facilities.
Construction of the Filzteich reservoir took place between 1483 and 1485 under Knight Heinrich von Starschedel to supply water for mining operations.
The reservoir forms part of the Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří Mining Region, which received UNESCO World Heritage status in 2019.
Visitors can access multiple recreational facilities at Filzteich, including an 83-meter water slide, swimming areas, and expansive grass areas for sunbathing.
A severe dam breach in 1783 caused an eight-meter flood wave, leading to the construction of a granite tap channel that cost over 17,000 thalers.
